Devery, the chief of pol- jee under Tammany Hall and during - the Croker regime; is the elect of the primaries in the Ninth district of New York. and is in line for the leadership of the party, though to have no aspirations in that direction. He has defeated Goodwin and Shee- han, the men who presumed to reflect of the respectable element in professing the mind New York's democracy. js an evidence of by a man Devery"s success what can be accomplished of unscrupulous ways and means. Ban- ished from office, for cause, and seem- ingly from public view, he used his money, the wealth that did not fall from the skies nor come to him in sal- ary in the wholesale bribery of the people. His exploits are without a parallel in political annals. He hired a corps of physicians and nurses to take care of the sick babies in the district; he buried' the bills; he appointed dead, and paid funeral deaconesses to walk streets daily in search of distressed people, and he supplied them, freely, with groceries, meat, milk, coal, shoes and clothes; he hearts an outing on the Hudson, engaging two steamers, and five barges to carry 115.0000 women. and children to a pic- - i | nic ground and there gave them a entertained the tour- fe four brass roval feast; he ists by the way with mpsie of three vaudeville troupes, bands, a dozen bagpiners, accordian players and harmonica experts, and a glee club of coal mine sixibony Nor was that all.

TREAL EXCHANGE Congress is of the opinion that © the strikers of the Kingston Locomotive Works who were fined $50 and costs each for. persuading men to leave the employ of the company were too harshly dealt with. That the congress <hould be of this opinion is not sur pki:ing; no more so than if the men in question had only been fined fifty cents each. The money did not and wid not come out of the pockets of the 'men, but from the funds of the union, and it is but right that it should, for the men were simply per- forming the union's bidding at the time. If ever there was a lot of strik- ers not entitled to any great amount of public sympathy, these men who voluntarily left the employ of the Kingston company are the ciowd in question. The Kingston works have cost capi- talists a pretty penny already. They have been closed down at different times solely because they could not be made to pay. A new companv did fairly well until the machinists in their employ undertook to convince the management that to the men be- longed the direction of the enterprise. In a great many ways they contrived to let the management know that the union was, and intended to be, the hoss of the concern. They undertook to ram its constitution down the throats of the: management. A man who had been employed around © the works for laborer vears as a was placed in charge of a machine. He thoroughly understood its éperation, and was capable of doing as much and as good work with it as the best man in the place. Put he was nota machinist, and © so the union objected to his doing a machinist's work. They objected to this man using his i ence to secure self-advancement hecause this advancement was not se- cured in the usual way. He had" not served his time. The position of the union was wholly indefensible. This man had made the most of his oppor- tunity. and no union had the right to prevent him from profiting from his acceptance of it. If the men did not like it they had the richt to co elsewhere in search of employment. They left. The company filled their places with men, many from Stotland. These men came to Canada to earn an honest wage by 'honest labor. The strikers endeavored to intimidate them; they endeavored to induce them to return to Scotland by paying their fare. Some of them, it is said, were so induced to return. The union had money enough to do this, and it had enaugh consequently to pay for the illecal acts of its members. Inducing men to. leave the service of their employers is illegal, as perform- ed in this instance. The men got what they deserved. The Locomotive company paid them good wages, tak- ing into consideration the cost of liv- ing. It was, and is, striving to place on a paying basis an industry into which a good deal of money has gone with' no returns. It was not right that an attempt should be made to <trangle the enterprise, when it is just beginning to make its own way. ------------------ PRESS PARAGRAPHS. No Hurry About It.

British Army and Navy Have Im- proved of Late. New York, Sept. 19.--1lsar-Admiral Lord Ghatles Beresford, of the British navy, who drrived from Europe on the Kron Prinz Wilhelm, was asked for his opinion on various topics, = and talked at some length on armies and navies, naval manoeuvres, the ship- ping combine and other topics. He said : "1 have no more criticisms to make on our army and navy, They have im- can war. I think the world learned, by the Boer war, of what great value moveable heavy guns are. No country had ever been able before to do what we did, take the heavy guns from warships, and use them in the held. "The latest addition to our navy, submarine boats, are largely an un- careful of is not to -underrate 'them; or then again, overrate them. "When vou ask me about the ship- ing combine, 1 must confess that we are a little frightened. Not at the pro- babilities, however, but at the possi- bilities of such a combination of in- terests. It is ridiculous to talk of En- gland's forming a rival combination. We cannot compete with your rail- ways, and it is well known that it is the through rate that pays. England would not establish a bounty or sub- sidy on her ships for, if she did, you could put up a fillion pounds to ev- ery thousand of ours. Then again vou have eighty million peaple here and 'unlimited means. "Your recent naval manoeuvres 1 have been watching with interest. They are very practical. England did not have enough of them in the past. My idea is to teach young men to hecome admirals. 1 was fifty-one when I be- came an dmiral, but conditions proved greatly since the South Afri- | known quantity. What we have to be ought to be such that a' man could be made admiral as early as forty-five. "These manoeuvres also prevent men from going to war as an experiment. A sham battle teaches the sailors more than all their school-ship train ing. The men in onr navy begin to learn when very young, and are cchooled for eight vears before 'they oeuvres we have to look for two ele- ments--danger and absurdity. "Naval fichting is like army ficht- ing. On shore vou have the infantry. which can be compared with the small vessels. The field guns can be likened to the cruisers, and the heavy artil- lerv to the battle-ships. Forage wago- gons take the place of transports, and sO on. "Tt is not true that we are shorteof men in the British navy. We can get all the men we want. Our burden of antiquated ships is also ereatly exao- cerated. We have a few old-timers, but are oradually getting rid of them. 1 must admit, however, that France has cone ahead of us in the fact that she has taken her old ships and remodell- ed them." na m---------------------- LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
